Favorite Song

Do you have a favorite song
that you like to sing each day?
Teach me and I’ll sing along
so we both may sing and play.

Let’s buzz, buzz, buzz like the bumble bees,
and hum, hum, hum like hummingbirds,
whis-, whis- whisper tunes through the trees,
and mock, mock, mock the mockingbirds.

Let's chirp, chirp, chirp like chirping crickets
and hop, hop, hop like green grasshoppers,
fly, fly, fly like dragons in thickets,
make a face like beaver’s chop choppers.

Sing-a-longs are fun to sing
to flowers, birds, and sky.
Let’s dance inside a fairy ring
until it’s time to say goodbye.

I used to sing but my voice is awful now. But you should hear my two dogs and I sing the Whole Foods commercial! It is exceptional :) A very uplifting poem, Linda.

LOL. I used to have a dog who would sing with his cheek next to mine and both of us smiling. I can imagine your chorus with your dogs - adorable. I'm glad you enjoyed this poem Ann. :)

Hi Linda. I have so many songs I sing every day. They change with my mood so it's an ever changing, never-ending list. Music is usually playing somewhere around me.

I owe you so many, Linda. I'm juggling two sites and it's certainly not boring!

Hi Jenna. I love music, and often just sing what I'm doing, if that makes sense. Yes, it changes with mood. It is good to see you here. Thank you for reading and commenting. :)
